Trip departure: Denver, CO
Based on our own high school experience as campers, our Colorado Teen Adventure was our very first Western trip back in 2005. This high country sampler has something for everyone in a jam packed 10 days.
Day 1
Your trip begins in Denver, where we’ll pick you up at the airport. Then it’s off to the Indian Peaks Wilderness, with a quick stop in Estes Park.
Days 2-3
Rock climbing in the high country is the ultimate Colorado rush. You’ll learn basic knots and rope skills, as well as challenge yourself on fine Colorado granite. The next day is dedicated to exploring Rocky’s lakes.
Days 4-6
It’s time to go deep into the backcountry as we backpack into remote mountain lakes. Views like ours are worth working for, and work we will! This is consistently ranked as our participants favorite part of the trip.
Days 7-8
It’s time to clean up from backpacking and head to the river! We’ll base camp near Fort Collins and shoot down the twisty, bouncy, and COLD Poudre River! This one of a kind canyon float trip is not to be missed!
Day 9
The trip comes to an end with our return to Denver and back home. Don’t be sad, though. There’s always next year!
